Macnaught will launch its new productivity tool – AutoSwitch – at AAAExpo

In a busy automotive workshop, productivity is everything.
Every minute saved on routine servicing adds up to improved efficiency, faster turnaround times, and better outcomes for both technicians and customers.
Tools that minimise interruptions and keep work flowing smoothly are essential to maintaining this momentum.
At this year’s Australian Auto Aftermarket Expo (AAAExpo), Macnaught is introducing the AutoSwitch Dual Piston Grease Gun; engineered to help technicians work faster and more efficiently, without unnecessary interruptions.
Macnaught says one of the key advantages of the AutoSwitch is its ability to automatically adapt during operation.
In a typical workflow, technicians often need to switch between high-volume grease delivery and higher pressure for more demanding applications.
Traditionally, this requires manual adjustment and causing downtime.
Macnaught says the AutoSwitch removes this step entirely, with its intelligent dual piston system responding instantly to pressure changes, allowing seamless transitions without stopping.
The company explains that the result is a smoother workflow, helping technicians stay focused and complete jobs more efficiently.
Ease of use plays a critical role in maintaining productivity in a busy workshop, so when encountering a stubborn or blocked fitting, the AutoSwitch intuitively responds by automatically building up to 12,000 PSI (82,700 kPa), removing the need for manual adjustment and helping the job continue without interruption.
Macnaught says this seamless transition between pressure requirements keeps technicians focused on the task, rather than the tool, while the 500mm flexible high-pressure hose improves accessibility in confined spaces.
A clear PIN indicator also provides instant visual confirmation when operating in high-pressure mode, ensuring full control throughout the job.
Further, Macnaught says with the AutoSwitch, efficiency extends beyond operation to overall usability, as it is equipped with the KY SuperGrip coupler for a secure and precise connection, helping ensure grease is delivered exactly where it is needed.
Flexible three-way loading options – including bulk fill, J3 grease pump, or cartridge – also reportedly support uninterrupted workflow and reduce downtime during servicing.
Built for long-term use, Macnaught explains the AutoSwitch is fully repairable, making it a reliable and sustainable addition to any professional workshop.
Macnaught invites you to visit its team on stand H42 at AAAExpo to discover how the AutoSwitch can help improve productivity and keep your workshop running at peak efficiency.
